Why not here too?<p> Democrats are loathe to harden schools and allow tight, heavily armed security to protect school children. However, this is the only solution that actually has been proven to work nearly 100% of the time. </p><p>Israel may have the answer to US school shootings. In 1974, armed terrorists engaged in a gunfight with Israeli Security services on the streets. The gunfight ended up in an Israeli school. It involved three terrorists & a two day hostage standoff at an elementary school where they took 115 people hostage. Of the hostages, 105 were children. </p><p>The hostage takers demanded the release of 23 Palestinian terrorists held in prisons or executions would begin. The police entered the building on the second day. the terrorists responded by killing 25 hostages & 6 other civilians. 68 others were injured.</p><p>As a result, Israeli law now requires an armed security guard inside every school of 100 or more students. The government provided money to build safe shelters and construct fences. All schools have high fences that are difficult to climb over. The government also pays for hiring, arming & training security officers at the schools. Private groups band together to pay for this kind of security at smaller schools. Additionally, the government hardened school buses. </p><p>The law allows certain individuals to carry firearms in schools. At bigger schools with more necessary entrances, there are more armed guards at each entrance, </p><p>No school employee is required to, nor do they carry a firearm in the school.</p><p>Generally, the armed guards are private security company employees who work closely with local law enforcement.. The Israeli police are responsible for control and oversight of security for all schools from K to Universities. </p><p>The guard checks the entire school 30 minutes before the morning bell. They are usually stationed at the schools only entrance and check people and vehicles when necessary and will refuse entry to anyone deemed necessary to exclude. The guard doesn't allow anyone to enter the school who isn't a student, school staff, or a visitor who is clearly allowed to enter. </p><p>The guards commit to & are required by law to engage each & every school attacker. </p><p>There has been one successful school attack in Israel since 1974where 4 people were killed in 2002. The attackers were killed. In 2008, a lone gunman was killed before he could enter a school.</p><p>This type of proactive defense against school shooters & hostage takers works. Why do liberals refuse to use the same plan here? Because it doesn't disarm millions of people whose firesrms ahve never harmed anyone & never will? </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><iframe src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=armedselfdefe-20&o=1&p=13&l=ur1&category=sports&banner=1FG4SKMXKH8ANN37MB82&f=ifr" width="468" height="60" scrolling="no" border="0" marginwidth="0" style="border:none;" frameborder="0"></iframe></div>jghhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02887891532677660002noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6857047304739835863.post-869856528562099362013-08-12T08:53:00.002-07:002013-08-12T13:11:40.512-07:00Free Legal Representation Offered By Two Organizations For Gun Owner Members In Legal Hot Water. <div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">Free
legal representation is now offered by several organizations to their members

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">After
the George Zimmerman case, legal liability for self defense shooting has become
a concern for gun owners. One company, Texas Law Shield, offers legal

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; line-height: 26px;">The State of New York is losing many jobs as a result of the "unintended consequences" of the New York Secure Ammunition and Firearms Enforcement Act of 2013 </span><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; line-height: 26px;">signed into law in New York State in January. </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">According to information that has updated the company's press release, Kahr Firearms Group is moving to </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Blooming Grove Township of Pike County Pennsylvania, to open a new </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">manufacturing site and relocate the Kahr corporate office from New York to Pennsylvania. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Kahr’s corporate offices are currently located in Rockland County in Pearl River, New York. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Kahr’s plans include the purchase of 620 acres of commercial real estate from the Pike County </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Industrial Park Development Group/Business Development Corporation. The first step in the </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">multi-phased plan will begin with site preparation and office construction as early as late this </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">year. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This will be followed by the relocation of company corporate offices and the research and </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">development department. In the second phase, manufacturing operations will be expanded to the </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Pike County location to meet the increasing demand for its Kahr Arms, Thompson, </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Auto-Ordnance, and Magnum Research product lines. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">T</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">he Kahr Group of manufacturing plants, operating at full capacity, will continue production in </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">their current locations in Worcester, MA and Pillager, MN. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“We are grateful for the warm welcome and the business opportunity extended by the Pike </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">County Industrial Park Development Group/Business Development Corporation to expand our </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">company and relocate its headquarters office,” stated VP of Sales and Marketing, Frank Harris. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“The Pennsylvania group has demonstrated tremendous support of our operations and Kahr looks </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">to move forward with the project without delay. It’s good for our business and also for other </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">businesses in the area as we build a long-term mutually beneficial relationship with the </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">community. We anticipate generating significant numbers of revenue and jobs for the local </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Northeastern Pennsylvania economy with the construction of facilities, expansion of </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">manufacturing, and need for local vendors.” </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: large; line-height: 18px; text-indent: 0in;">"Why armed security inside schools will actually work, and why are detractors so apoplectic?" </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-indent: 0in;"><span style="font-size: large;">Why do anti gun rights groups continue to misrepresent what happened with Columbine and Virginia Tech "Security Guards?"</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; text-indent: 0in;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; text-indent: 0in;">Rather than even consider armed security being put to use in schools immediately to try to stop another mass killing that could happen as this is read, excuses as to why not to do it are flying off the shelf faster than liberal's campaign promises. Anti gun rights forces are happier with the status quo of no armed resource officers on campus, and for students and staff waiting for police to arrive after a 911 call only to drive to the scene and find everything is over and the gunman has killed himself. </span></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpFirst" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpFirst" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The excuses of why armed security will not work in schools are
astonishing. They are factually challenged and pathetic too. One is “We can’t pay for it.” That’s a real corker from those who use
taxes and fees to pay for every social program ever known to man. That’s the
same group who enforced payment for Obama phones and universal internet
availability through additional tariffs (taxes) found on everyone’s monthly
phone bill. The same taxes that funded a grant</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, 'Nimbus Sans L', sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"> to study why people cheated at tennis. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, 'Nimbus Sans L', sans-serif; text-indent: 0in;">And, </span><span style="text-indent: 0in;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Nimbus Sans L, sans-serif;"> the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration was given </span></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Nimbus Sans L, sans-serif; text-indent: 0in;">$2 million to research a prototype police patrol car </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, 'Nimbus Sans L', sans-serif; text-indent: 0in;">that was never completed. The car was loaded with gadgets </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, 'Nimbus Sans L', sans-serif; text-indent: 0in;">and would have cost $49,078 each. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, 'Nimbus Sans L', sans-serif; text-indent: 0in;">Its estimated that there are between 500,000 and a million police cars in the USA. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, 'Nimbus Sans L', sans-serif; text-indent: 0in;">The cost of security is estimated at about $69,000 per year for each of the 100,000 public schools in the USA. </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, 'Nimbus Sans L', sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; text-indent: 0in;">High on the list is, “Armed guards at schools do not
work.” The naysayers quickly point out the failure of the armed deputy at
Columbine and the failure of the campus police at Virginia Tech.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, 'Nimbus Sans L', sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">However, one of the big anti firearms rights organizations
against armed security in schools is consistently using misinformation, omissions of facts,
and the usual half truths in its internet assault on armed guards at schools. They
will remain nameless here. The group says it has been tried and it didn’t work at Columbine
and Virginia Tech. And, gullible readers with the same agenda accept the
twisted story obediently as absolute fact. The reason security failed at those places is
simple. Armed security was not present at the scene and/or inside the schools when
the carnage broke out. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The fabricated internet piece concerning Columbine unravels when their account
is examined and compared with facts from the Jefferson County Sheriff’s department.
The
first false recurring Columbine claim accepted by the anti firearms rights advocates at the site was
that there were TWO armed law enforcement “agents” present at Columbine during the shootings. In
reality, according to the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department, there was ONE
armed deputy assigned to the school and one unarmed school security officer who
was a school district employee. However, the anti gun rights group portrayed
events to appear that two armed guards were present and inside the building or
on the grounds as the slaughter began. That is false. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">On the morning of the killings, the unarmed security
guard was inside the building and the armed Deputy was sitting in his car and
eating his lunch at the “Smoker’s pit”, an off campus area where high schoolers
congregated to smoke. Smoking was about the biggest on campus issue at that
time. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">He received a call from the custodian to come back to the
school. He was not even in the building when the havoc started with an
exploding propane tank. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">By the time he drove back and arrived in a school parking
lot, he saw Harris, a killer, take 10 shots from outside the school at his car
before his gun jammed. He ran back inside. The deputy returned 4 shots from 60 yards
away. It is likely that he returned fire with his service handgun. He could not
get closer to the school. Let alone, get back into the building. He was pinned
down from a window above.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">They also say claim security didn’t work because the Columbine
security was “outgunned.” They fail to mention that this happened in the days
before it was commonplace for an AR15 was carried in nearly every patrol car. Some
police still carried grandfathered Colt 1911.45 pistols. An intimidating
sidearm still. However, according to the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department
report, 141 shots were fired by law enforcement officers compared to 188 fired
by the murderers. These include the fatal bullets that killed and wounded
students. They didn’t fail because they were outgunned. They failed because
they were outside. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">A third fabrication was that “They” engaged the killers
twice. In fact, the only shots in the initial confrontation were the four fired
by the lone deputy in the parking lot at Harris. And, the “assault rifle” being
fired by the student malfunctioned when it jammed. Again, the only people inside the school
building were the two armed killers. By the time the deputy assigned to the
school drove back in his patrol car and arrived at the school, it was the
typical police response in any emergency call. There in minutes when seconds
count. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left: 0in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: .25in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The other shootings always being brought up now are the
killings at Virginia Tech. Sure, the College had its own police force. And,
they responded as police always do…late. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The first murders were at a dorm at 7:15 am. The police
got there at 7:30 am. The killer went back to his dorm room for a couple of
hours. Then between 9:00 am and 9:15 am, he went to Norris Hall and chained the
doors shut. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoListBulletCxSpMiddle" style="mso-list: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">At 9:42, a 911 call went out alerting that shots were fired

The group said last week that, “C</span><span style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode', sans-serif;">arrying a gun does not provide ANY realistic possibility of self defense—<span style="border: none windowtext 1.0pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in;">the element of surprise ALWAYS defeats the gun carrier.” They call that “Gun fact #1.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="background: #F9F9F9; line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 15.0pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; border: 1pt none windowtext; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode', sans-serif; padding: 0in;">The author of the opinion further states that, an armed criminal will not approach you and challenge you to "Draw." They say that the thug will have the "Drop" on you before you know they are there. </span><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; letter-spacing: .1pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> They claim that you will make no moves with a concealed weapon to defend yourself as they rob you of your money and take your gun. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="background: #F9F9F9; line-height: 15.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 15.0pt; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; letter-spacing: .1pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">No, they don't say, “Draw.” It's generally, “Give me your money, your car, your wallet, or if it’s a business, Give me what’s in the till.” There is no question what the assailant will do with his gun. The only question is what you will do with yours. However, that is a very personal decision made based on the facts of the situation at hand.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">There are numerous daily situations across the USA where an armed would be “victim” draws his sidearm and scares off, wounds, or kills his or her assailant, thereby protecting himself, or others, or both.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";"><br />

The quick acting would be victim gave the punk a bullet instead, and dropped him to the floor like the bag of garbage he was, ending his robbery plans. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />

</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">In crime ridden Flint, Michigan, a recently discharged Marine drew his handgun and shot one of two men in the chest Sunday morning. The two were in the middle of robbing guests at a party he was attending.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">These are just three recent examples of how carrying a gun in public does provide self defense. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">It is notable that this organization was begun by someone who lost a son to senseless gun by a man carrying a gun illegally in California. A parent outliving a child, especially in this manner is horrific. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";">However, when an organization such as this one, which will not receive any publicity and remain nameless, has done in advancing as a fact that carrying a gun in public “does not provide self defense,” it is time to stand up to that lie. It also brings to question of the gullibility of the intended audience that the writers believe exists in the public in general. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />

<br style="line-height: 1.22em;" /> That's the same Sheldon Adelson who gave $15 million to help Newt Gingrich against Mitt Romney in the primary, and said he may give $100 million -- basically, whatever it costs -- to defeat Barack Obama.<br />
<br style="line-height: 1.22em;" /> We're starting to get a glimpse of how Romney plans to cash in on his vice presidential pick. Before Ryan's even been fully introduced to the American people, he's attending a private fundraiser in Vegas with the top super PAC donor.<br />

Zhou Kehua was killed by police yesterday as they stopped him for questioning. <br />
<br />
Murderers still find a way to kill in mass even when guns aren't available.<br />
<br />
Recently, a 17 year old Chinese killed 8 people and wounded 9 others with a knife after he had a fight with his girlfriend. There was a rash of knife killings in 2010 in China when 20 people were stabbed to death and 50 others were wounded.<br />
<br />
The Mayor of London is concerned about the "Culture of knives" in England and especially in London.<br />
<br />
On another front:<br />
It is interesting that the head of a well known anti gun group has posted on his blog that so called "assault rifles" should be banned. That is the usual anti gun demand. But, He also said in an interview on talk radio this weekend that gun bans "Do not work." This was reiterated by him several times during the hour on the radio. Which is it? Is this a classic case of cognitive dissonance? However, he is usually more radical in his blog than when speaking in public.<br />
<br />
He also claimed on his blog that a background check will keep guns out of the hands of Neo Nazi groups and their members. He didn't mention specifics how that would be accomplished. Would he object to the same standard being applied to radical Islam present in the U.S? It would be interesting to see his substantiation for his claims.<br />

The White House<br />
Washington, D.C. 20500</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;"><br />
</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">Dear Mr. President,</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">I am writing to request that you assert executive privilege with respect to confidential Department of Justice (“Department”) documents that are responsive to the subpoena issued by the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform of the United States House of Representatives (“Committee”) on October 25, 2011. The subpoena relates to the Committee’s investigation into Operation Fast and Furious, a law enforcement operation conducted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (“ATF”) and the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Arizona to stem the illegal flow of firearms from the United States to drug cartels in Mexico (“Fast and Furious”). The Committee has scheduled a meeting for June 20, 2012, to vote on a resolution holding me in contempt of Congress for failing to comply with the subpoena.<span id="more-90162"></span></div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">I.</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">The Committee’s subpoena broadly sweeps in various groups of documents relating to both the conduct of Operation Fast and Furious and the Department’s response to congressional inquiries about that operation. In recognition of the seriousness ofthe Committee’s concerns about both the inappropriate tactics used in Fast and Furious and the inaccuracies concerning the use of those tactics in the letter that the Department sent to Senator Grassley on February 4, 2011 (“February 4 Letter”), the Department has taken a number of significant steps in response to the Committee’s oversight. First, the Department has instituted various reforms to ensure that it does not repeat these law enforcement and oversight mistakes. Second, at my request the Inspector General is investigating the conduct of Fast and Furious. And third, to the extent consistent with important Executive Branch confidentiality and separation of powers interests affected by the Committee’s investigation into ongoing criminal investigations and prosecutions, as well as applicable disclosure laws, the Department has provided a significant amount of information in an extraordinary effort to accommodate the Committee’s legitimate oversight interests, including testimony, transcribed interviews, briefings and other statements by Department officials, and all of the Department’s internal documents concerning the preparation of the February 4 Letter.</div><hr style="background-color: #f3f1f3; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-top-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-top-style: solid; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; height: 1px; line-height: 21px; margin: 1em 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">The Committee has made clear that its contempt resolution will be limited to internal Department “documents from after February 4, 2011, related to the Department’s response to Congress.” Letter for Eric H. Holder, Jr., Attorney General, from Darrell E. Issa, Chairman, Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, U.S. House ofRepresentatives at 1-2 (June 13, 2012) (“Chairman’s Letter”). I am asking you to assert executive privilege over these</span><br style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;" /><span style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">documents. They were not generated in the course of the conduct of Fast and Furious. Instead, they were created after the investigative tactics at issue in that operation had terminated and in the course of the Department’s deliberative process concerning how to respond to congressional and related media inquiries into that operation.</span><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;"></div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">In view of the significant confidentiality and separation of powers concerns raised by the Committee’s demand for internal documents generated in response to the Committee’s investigation, we consider the Department’s accommodations regarding the preparation of the February 4 Letter to have been extraordinary. Despite these accommodations, however, the Committee scheduled a vote on its contempt resolution. At that point, the Department offered an additional accommodation that would fully address the Committee’s remaining questions. The Department offered to provide the Committee with a briefing, based on documents that the Committee could retain, explaining how the Department’s understanding of the facts of Fast and Furious evolved during the post-February 4 period, as well as the process that led to the withdrawal of the February 4 Letter. The Committee, however, has not accepted the Department’s offer and has instead elected to proceed with its contempt vote.</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">As set forth more fully below, I am very concerned that the compelled production to Congress of internal Executive Branch documents generated in the course of the deliberative process concerning its response to congressional oversight and related media inquiries would have significant, damaging consequences: It would inhibit the candor of such Executive Branch deliberations in the future and significantly impair the Executive Branch’s ability to respond independently and effectively to congressional oversight. This would raise substantial separation of powers concerns and potentially create an imbalance in the relationship between these two co¬ equal branches of the Government. Consequently, as the head of the Department of Justice,<br />
I respectfully request that you assert executive privilege over the identified documents. This letter sets forth the basis for my legal judgment that you may properly do so.</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">II.</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">Executive privilege is “fundamental to the operation of Government and inextricably rooted in the separation of powers under the Constitution.” United States v. Nixon, 418 U.S. 683,708 (1974). It is “a necessary corollary of the executive function vested in the President by Article II of the Constitution.” Congressional Requests for Confidential Executive Branch Information, 13 Op. O.L.C. 153, 154 (1989) (“Congressional Requests Opinion”) (opinion of Assistant Attorney General William P. Barr); see U.S. Const. art. II,§ 1, cl. 1 (“The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America.”); U.S. Const. art. II, § 3 (The President shall “take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed ….”). Indeed, executive privilege “has been asserted by numerous Presidents from the earliest days of our Nation, and it was explicitly recognized by the Supreme Court in United States v. Nixon.” Congressional Requests Opinion, 13 Op. O.L.C. at 154.</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">The documents at issue fit squarely within the scope of executive privilege. In connection with prior assertions of executive privilege, two Attorneys General have advised the President that documents of this kind are within the scope of executive privilege. See Letter for the President from Paul D. Clement, Solicitor General and Acting Attorney General, Re: Assertion of Executive Privilege Concerning the Dismissal and Replacement of US. Attorneys at<br />
6 (June 27, 2007) (“US. Attorneys Assertion”) (“[C]ommunications between the Department of</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">Justice and the White House concerning … possible responses to congressional and media inquiries about the U.S. Attorney resignations … clearly fall within the scope of executive privilege.”); Assertion of Executive Privilege Regarding White House Counsel’s Office Documents, 20 Op. O.L.C. 2, 3 (1996) (“WHCO Documents Assertion”) (opinion of Attorney General Janet Reno) (concluding that”[e]xecutive privilege applies” to “analytical material or other attorney work-product prepared by the White House Counsel’s Office in response to the ongoing investigation by the Committee”).</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">It is well established that “[t]he doctrine of executive privilege … encompasses Executive Branch deliberative communications.” Letter for the President from Michael B. Mukasey, Attorney General, Re: Assertion of Executive Privilege over Communications Regarding EPA ‘s Ozone Air Quality Standards and California’s Greenhouse Gas Waiver Request at 2 (June 19, 2008) (“EPA Assertion”); see also, e.g, US Attorneys Assertion at 2; Assertion of Executive Privilege with Respect To Clemency Decision, 23 Op. O.L.C. 1, 1-2 (1999) (“Clemency Assertion”) (opinion of Attorney General Janet Reno). The threat of compelled disclosure of confidential Executive Branch deliberative material can discourage robust and candid deliberations, for “[h]uman experience teaches that those who expect public dissemination of their remarks may well temper candor with a concern for appearances and for their own interests to the detriment of the decisionmaking process.” Nixon, 418 U.S. at 705. Thus, Presidents have repeatedly asserted executive privilege to protect confidential Executive Branch deliberative materials from congressional subpoena. See, e.g, EPA Assertion at 2-3; Letter for the President from Michael B. Mukasey, Attorney General, Re: Assertion of Executive Privilege Concerning the Special Counsel ‘s Interviews of the Vice President and Senior White House Staff at 2 (July 15, 2008) (“Special Counsel Assertion”); Letter for the President from John Ashcroft, Attorney General, Re: Assertion of Executive Privilege with Respect to Prosecutorial Documents at 2 (Dec. 10, 2001) (“Prosecutorial Documents Assertion”);<br />
Clemency Assertion, 23 Op. O.L.C. at 1-4; Assertion of Executive Privilege in Response to<br />
a Congressional Subpoena, 5 Op. O.L.C. 27,29-31 (1981) (“1981 Assertion”) (opinion of<br />
Attorney General William French Smith).</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">Because the documents at issue were generated in the course of the deliberative process concerning the Department’s responses to congressional and related media inquiries into Fast and Furious, the need to maintain their confidentiality is heightened. Compelled disclosure of<br />
such material, regardless of whether a given document contains deliberative content, would raise “significant separation of powers concerns,” WHCO Documents Assertion, 20 Op. O.L.C. at 3, by ‘”significantly impair[ing]“‘ the Executive Branch’s ability to respond independently and effectively to matters under congressional review. US. Attorneys Assertion at 6 (“the ability of the Office of the Counsel to the President to assist the President in responding to [congressional and related media] investigations ‘would be significantly impaired’ if a congressional committee could review ‘confidential documents prepared in order to assist the President and his staff in responding to an investigation by the committee seeking the documents”‘) (quoting WHCO Documents Assertion, 20 Op. O.L.C. at 3) (alterations omitted). See generally The Constitutional Separation of Powers Between the President and Congress, 20 Op. O.L.C. 124,126-28, 133-35 (1996) (explaining that, under Supreme Court case law, congressional action that interferes with the functioning of the Executive Branch, including “attempts to dictate the processes of executive deliberation,” can violate general separation of powers principles); Nixon v. Administrator ofGeneral Services, 433 U.S. 425,443 (1977) (congressional enactment that “disrupts the proper balance between the coordinate branches” may violate the separation of powers).</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">Congressional oversight of the process by which the Executive Branch responds to congressional oversight inquiries would create a detrimental dynamic that is quite similar to what would occur in litigation if lawyers had to disclose to adversaries their deliberations about the case, and specifically about how to respond to their adversaries’ discovery requests. As the Supreme Court recognized in establishing the attorney work product doctrine, “it is essential that a lawyer work with a certain degree of privacy, free from unnecessary intrusion by opposing parties and their counsel.” Hickman v. Taylor, 329 U.S. 495, 510-11 (1947). Were attorney work product “open to opposing counsel on mere demand,” the Court explained, “[i]nefficiency, unfairness and sharp practices would inevitably develop in the giving of legal advice and in the preparation of cases for trial … , [a]nd the interests of the clients and the cause of justice would be poorly served.” !d. at 511.</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">Similarly, in the oversight context, as the Department recognized in the prior administration, a congressional power to request information from the Executive Branch and then review the ensuing Executive Branch discussions regarding how to respond to that request would chill the candor of those Executive Branch discussions and “introduce a significantly unfair imbalance to the oversight process.” Letter for John Conyers, Jr., Chairman, Committee on the Judiciary, U.S. House ofRepresentatives, and Linda T. Sanchez, Chairwoman, Subcommittee on Commercial and Administrative Law, Committee on the Judiciary, U.S. House of Representatives, from Richard A. Bertling, Acting Assistant Attorney General, Office of Legislative Affairs at 3 (Mar. 26, 2007). Such congressional power would disserve both Branches and the oversight process itself, which involves two co-equal branches of government and, like litigation, often is, and needs to be, adversarial. We recognize that it is essential to Congress’s ability to interact independently and effectively with the Executive Branch that the confidentiality of internal deliberations among Members of Congress and their staffs be<br />
protected against incursions by the Executive Branch. See Gravel v. United States, 408 U.S. 606, 616 (1972) (“The Speech or Debate Clause was designed to assure a co-equal branch of the government wide freedom of speech, debate, and deliberation without intimidation or threats from the Executive Branch.”). It is likewise essential to the Executive Branch’s ability to respond independently and effectively to matters under congressional review that the confidentiality of internal Executive Branch deliberations be protected against incursions by Congress.</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">Moreover, there is an additional, particularized separation of powers concern here because the Committee’s inquiry into Fast and Furious has sought information about ongoing criminal investigations and prosecutions. Such information would itself be protected by executive privilege, see, e.g., Assertion of Executive Privilege in Response to Congressional Demands for Law Enforcement Files, 6 Op. O.L.C. 31,32 (1982) (opinion of Attorney General William French Smith) (“[I]t has been the policy of the Executive Branch throughout this Nation’s history generally to decline to provide committees of Congress with access to or copies of law enforcement files except in the most extraordinary circumstances.”). Consequently, the Department’s deliberations about how to respond to these congressional inquiries involved discussion of how to ensure that critical ongoing law enforcement actions are not compromised and that law enforcement decisionmaking is not tainted by even the appearance of political influence. See, e.g., id. at 33 (noting “substantial danger that congressional pressures will influence the course ofthe investigation … [and] potential damage to proper law enforcement which would be caused by the revelation of sensitive techniques, methods, or strategy”) (quotation marks omitted). Maintaining the confidentiality of such candid internal discussions helps preserve the independence, integrity, and effectiveness of the Department’s law enforcement efforts.</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">III.</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">A congressional committee “may overcome an assertion of executive privilege only if it establishes that the subpoenaed documents are ‘demonstrably critical to the responsible fulfillment of the Committee’s functions.”‘ Special Counsel Assertion at 5-6 (quoting Senate Select Comm. on Presidential Campaign Activities v. Nixon, 498 F.2d 725,731 (D.C. Cir. 1974) (en bane) (emphasis added)); see also, e.g., US. Attorneys Assertion at 2 (same); Clemency Assertion, 23 Op. O.L.C. at 2 (same); Nixon, 418 U.S. at 707 (“[I]t is necessary to resolve those competing interests in a manner that preserves the essential functions of each branch.”). “Those functions must be in furtherance of Congress’s legitimate legislative responsibilities,” Special Counsel Assertion at 5 (emphasis added), for “[c]ongressional oversight of Executive Branch actions is justifiable only as a means of facilitating the legislative task of enacting, amending, or repealing laws.” 1981 Assertion, 5 Op. O.L.C. at 30-31. See also, e.g., Special Counsel Assertion at 5; US. Attorneys Assertion at 2-3; McGrain v. Daugherty, 273 U.S. 135, 176 (1927) (congressional oversight power may be used only to “obtain information in aid of the legislative function”); Eastland v. US. Servicemen’s Fund, 421 U.S. 491, 504 n.15 (1975) (“The subject of any [congressional] inquiry always must be one on which legislation could be had.”) (quotation marks omitted).</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">A.</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">The Committee has not satisfied the “demonstrably critical” standard with respect to the documents at issue. The Committee has said that it needs the post-February 4 documents “related to the Department’s response to Congress” concerning Fast and Furious in order to “examine the Department’s mismanagement of its response to Operation Fast and Furious.” Chairman’s Letter at 1-2. More specifically, the Committee has explained in the report that it is scheduled to consider at its June 20 contempt meeting that it needs these documents so that it can “understand what the Department knew about Fast and Furious, including when and how it discovered its February 4 letter was false, and the Department’s efforts to conceal that information from Congress and the public.” Comm. on Oversight and Gov’t Reform, U.S. House ofRepresentatives, Report at 33 (June 15, 2012). House leaders have similarly communicated that the driving concern behind the Committee’s scheduled contempt vote is to determine whether Department leaders attempted to “mislead or misinform Congress” in response to congressional inquiries into Fast and Furious. See Letter for Eric H. Holder, Jr., Attorney General, from John A. Boehner, Speaker, U.S. House of Representatives, et al. at 1 (May 18, 2012) (“Speaker’s Letter”).</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">At the threshold, it is not evident that the Committee’s asserted need to review the management of the Department’s response to congressional inquiries furthers a legislative function of Congress. See WHCO Documents Assertion, 20 Op. O.L.C. at 4 (noting the question of “the extent of Congress’s authority to conduct oversight ofthe executive branch’s response to oversight … must be viewed as unresolved as a matter oflaw in light of the requirement that there be a nexus to Congress’s legislative authority”). In any event, the purported connection between the congressional interest cited and the documents at issue is now highly attenuated as a result ofthe Department’s extraordinary efforts to accommodate the Committee’s interest in this regard. Through these efforts, the Department has amply fulfilled its constitutional “obligation… to make a principled effort to acknowledge, and if possible to meet, the [Committee's] legitimate needs.” 1981 Assertion, 5 Op. O.L.C. at 31; see also, e.g. , United States v. AT&T, 567 F.2d 121, 127, 130 (D.C. Cir. 1977) (“[E]ach branch should take cognizance of an implicit constitutional mandate to seek optimal accommodation through a realistic evaluation of the needs of the conflicting branches in the particular fact situation…. Negotiation between the two branches should thus be viewed as a dynamic process affirmatively furthering the constitutional scheme.”).</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">Specifically, the Department has already shared with the Committee over 1300 pages of documents concerning the drafting of the February 4 Letter, in acknowledgment that the February 4 Letter contained inaccurate information. In addition, numerous Department officials and employees, including the Attorney General, have provided testimony and other statements concerning both the conduct of Fast and Furious and the Department’s preparation and withdrawal of the February 4 Letter. This substantial record shows that the inaccuracies in the February 4 Letter were the inadvertent product of the fact that, at the time they were preparing that letter, neither Department leaders nor the heads of relevant Department components on whom Department leaders reasonably relied for information knew the correct facts about the tactics used in Fast and Furious. Department leaders first learned that flawed tactics may have been used in Fast and Furious when public allegations about such tactics surfaced in early 2011, after such tactics had been discontinued. But Department leaders were mistakenly assured by the heads of relevant Department components that those allegations were false. As the Department collected and reviewed documents to provide to the Committee during the months after submitting the February 4 Letter, however, Department leaders came to understand that Fast and Furious was in fact fundamentally flawed and that the February 4 Letter may have been inaccurate. While the Department was developing that understanding, Department officials made public statements and took other actions alerting the Committee to their increasing concern about the tactics actually used in Fast and Furious and the accuracy of the February 4 Letter. When the Department was confident that it had a sufficient understanding of the factual record, it formally withdrew the February 4 Letter. All of this demonstrates that the Department did not in any way intend to mislead the Committee.</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">The Department continued its extraordinary efforts at accommodating the Committee by recently offering to provide the Committee with a briefing, based on documents that the Committee could retain, explaining further how the Department’s understanding of the facts of Fast and Furious evolved during the post-February 4 period, as well as the process that led to the withdrawal of the February 4 Letter. The Department believes that this briefing, and the accompanying documents, would have fully addressed what the Committee described as its remaining concerns related to the February 4 Letter and the good faith of the Department in responding to the Committee’s investigation. The Committee, however, has not accepted this offer of accommodation.</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">Finally, the Committee’s asserted need for post-February 4 documents is further diminished by the Inspector General’s ongoing investigation of Fast and Furious, which was undertaken at my request. As an Executive Branch official, the Inspector General may obtain access to documents that are privileged from disclosure to Congress. The existence of this investigation belies any suspicion that the Department is attempting to conceal important facts concerning Fast and Furious from the Committee. Moreover, in light of the Inspector General’s investigation, congressional oversight is not the only means by which the management of the Department’s response to Fast and Furious may be scrutinized.</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">In brief, the Committee received all documents that involved the Department’s preparation of the February 4 Letter. The Committee’s legitimate interest in obtaining documents created after the February 4 Letter is highly attenuated and has been fully accommodated by the Department. The Committee lacks any “demonstrably critical” need for further access to the Department’s deliberations to address concerns arising out of the February 4 Letter.</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">B.</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">The Department’s accommodations have concerned only a subset of the topics addressed in the withheld post-February 4 documents. The documents and information provided or offered to the Committee address primarily the evolution of the Department’s understanding of the facts of Fast and Furious and the process that led to the withdrawal ofthe February 4 Letter. Most of the withheld post-February 4 documents, however, relate to other aspects of the Department’s response to congressional and related media inquiries, such as procedures or strategies for responding to the Committee’s requests for documents and other information. The Committee has not articulated any particularized interest in or need for documents relating to such topics, let alone a need that would further a legislative function.</div><div style="background-color: #f3f1f3; color: #555555; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 21px;">“Broad, generalized assertions that the requested materials are of public import are simply insufficient under the ‘demonstrably critical’ standard.” US. Attorneys Assertion at 3; see also, e.g., Congressional Requests Opinion, 13 Op. O.L.C. at 160 (“‘A specific, articulated need for information will weigh substantially more heavily in the constitutional balancing than a generalized interest in obtaining information.”‘) (quoting 1981 Assertion, 5 Op. O.L.C. at 30)). Moreover, “Congress’s legislative function does not imply a freestanding authority to gather information for the sole purpose of informing ‘the American people.’” Special Counsel Assertion at 6. The “only informing function” constitutionally vested in Congress “‘is that of informing itself about subjects susceptible to legislation, not that of informing the public.”‘ !d. (quoting Miller v. Transamerican Press, Inc., 709 F.2d 524, 531 (9th Cir. 1983)).

The irony is lost on them that in a city where possession of a firearm, any firearm, outside of the home, even in a detached garage, is against the law and gun crimes runs amok. They want Americans to ignore those shootings and killings because Chicago has the harsh gun laws that they are pushing for nationally. And, they don't work.They stick to the big fundraising story. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Homicides are skyrocketing in Chicago, with at least 200 through the Memorial Day weekend. That compares to 134 at the same time last year. The number of gun related killings was 224 through June 9th. Shootings are up to 851 as opposed to 747 last year. In just one month, the period between May 3<sup>rd</sup> and June 2<sup>nd,</sup> Chicago had about 143 people injured by intentional gunfire, and about 50 killed by shootings in May, with 12 of those over Memorial weekend. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />

There is an existing law that prohibits them from doing that; however, it has not been enforced.</span></div><div style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><br />
</div><div style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">This group and other international gun banning groups believe that the off duty security guards bringing their firearms home with them poses a "particular danger" to women. The group that calls itself “Gun Free Kitchen Tables,” cites the usual anti gun themes, such as </span><br />
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">“the impracticality of safe storage in the home for such guns.” They also complain that "there is little public discussion on the implications of small arms proliferation, an issue that is not often talked about in Jewish Israeli society" <span style="font-size: xx-small;">1</span> But, when there is a real and proven daily threat to Israeli lives from terrorists, there probably wouldn’t be much gun control discussion going on for Israelis in the real world of self defense there. In reality, <o:p></o:p></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 12pt;">bringing their firearms home with them poses more of a "particular danger" to terrorists.</span></div><div style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><br />
</div><div style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">This push came after one security guard shot his wife 8 times with his service firearm he kept at home. She had previously complained to police about his domestic violence about a year before the shooting, yet apparently remained with him. Another woman was killed by her security guard husband. </span><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;">1</span><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><br />

This new law was immediately proposed after this group complained about the security guards. If passed, it would automatically allow security guards to carry their service firearms home. </span><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 8pt;">2<o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="background: white; line-height: 12.0pt; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><br />

The City stopped the "Kid Gloves" coddling yesterday, when a City Parks and Recreation Department crew entered the formerly permitted area and removed a tent that had been there for the last seven months. </span><br />

</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The yanking of the permit follows the arrest of five people associated with Occupy Cleveland who attempted to blow up a highway bridge "occupied" every day by Ohio residents and their families as they traveled across it in their cars. The mayor's office questioned the Groups' welcoming people who will commit such violent crimes into their group. </span><br />

Over 400 Occupiers were arrested at that "protest." The same type destruction was caused by them in other cities across the country in their May Day "General strike."</span></div><div style="background-color: white; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; border-left-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-top-width: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; margin-bottom: 1.5em; outline-color: initial; outline-style: initial; outline-width: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;"><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's amazing that those who clamor for full Constitutional rights for Guantanamo terrorists are the same ones who are ready to take Zimmerman's head now.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is evidence enough to make an observer believe that Liberalism is a mental disorder.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The writer must have slept through Civics or Government class. Or, maybe the writer is a victim of public school education. Or, perhaps both occurred.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Most of those on that website and others don't understand the concept of the presumption of Zimmerman's innocence, unless and until he is found guilty beyond a reasonable doubt at a trial by jury.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Many liberals are accusing conservatives of defending George Zimmerman to the detriment of Trayvon Martin. No, if Zimmerman is guilty, then so be it. Conservatives, by and large, are actually defending the right of a trial by jury and not one by a torch and pitchfork carrying mob at midnight.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This "Presumption of innocence" right derives from the Constitution's </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">6th Amendment, that states, "In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence."</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It also derives from common law, and state law. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here is the actual Florida jury instruction mandated by Florida Law for criminal trials.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"2.03 PLEA OF NOT GUILTY; REASONABLE</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">DOUBT; AND BURDEN OF PROOF</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The defendant has entered a plea of not guilty. This</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">means you must presume or believe the defendant is innocent.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The presumption stays with the defendant as to each material</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">allegation in the [information] [indictment] through each stage</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">of the trial unless it has been overcome by the evidence to the</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">exclusion of and beyond a reasonable doubt.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To overcome the defendant's presumption of innocence</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">the State has the burden of proving the crime with which the</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">defendant is charged was committed and the defendant is the</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">person who committed the crime.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The defendant is not required to present evidence or</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">prove anything.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Whenever the words "reasonable doubt" are used you</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">must consider the following:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">reasonable doubt during voir dire. State v. Wilson, 686 So.2d 569</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">(Fla. 1996).</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A reasonable doubt is not a mere possible doubt,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">a speculative, imaginary or forced doubt. Such a doubt</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">must not influence you to return a verdict of not guilty</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">if you have an abiding conviction of guilt. On the other</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">hand, if, after carefully considering, comparing and</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">weighing all the evidence, there is not an abiding</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">conviction of guilt, or, if, having a conviction, it is one</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">which is not stable but one which wavers and vacillates,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">then the charge is not proved beyond every reasonable</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">doubt and you must find the defendant not guilty</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">because the doubt is reasonable.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is to the evidence introduced in this trial, and to it alone, that</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">you are to look for that proof.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A reasonable doubt as to the guilt of the</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">defendant may arise from the evidence, conflict in the</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">evidence or the lack of evidence.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you have a reasonable doubt, you should find</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">the defendant not guilty. If you have no reasonable</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">doubt, you should find the defendant guilty."</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And. Here is the Florida jury instruction on the how the jury must evaluate evidence introduced in all Florida trials like the one Zimmerman faces.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"2.04 WEIGHING THE EVIDENCE</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is up to you to decide what evidence is reliable. You</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">should use your common sense in deciding which is the best</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">evidence, and which evidence should not be relied upon in</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">considering your verdict. You may find some of the evidence not</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">reliable, or less reliable than other evidence.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">You should consider how the witnesses acted, as well as</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">what they said. Some things you should consider are:</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">1. Did the witness seem to have an opportunity to</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">see and know the things about which the witness</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">testified?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">2. Did the witness seem to have an accurate</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">memory?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">3. Was the witness honest and straightforward in</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">answering the attorneys' questions?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">4. Did the witness have some interest in how the</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">case should be decided?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">5. Does the witness' testimony agree with the other</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">testimony and other evidence in the case?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">(Note to Judge:)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The instructions covered under paragraphs numbered six</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">through ten, inclusive, are not common to all cases. These</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">numbered paragraphs should be included only as required by the</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">evidence.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">6. Has the witness been offered or received any</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">money, preferred treatment or other benefit in</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">order to get the witness to testify?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">7. Had any pressure or threat been used against the</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">witness that affected the truth of the witness'</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">testimony?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">8. Did the witness at some other time make a</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">statement that is inconsistent with the testimony</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">[he] [she] gave in court?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">(Note to Judge)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The court also may wish to give as part of this instruction</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">the instructions covered under 2.04(a) and (b), concerning expert</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">witnesses and accomplices. If so, the Committee recommends that</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">they be given as additional numbered paragraphs, which would</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">precede the last two unnumbered paragraphs of this instruction.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">9. Was it proved that the witness had been</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">convicted of a crime?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">10. Was it proved that the general reputation of the</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">witness for telling the truth and being honest</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">was bad?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">You may rely upon your own conclusion about the</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">witness. A juror may believe or disbelieve all or any part of the</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">evidence or the testimony of any witness."</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The presumption of guilt until the Defendant proves himself innocent is used in France and in other countries that use the old Napoleonic Code.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">We know George Zimmerman has been charged with second degree murder. Here’s what will happen next on the State Court level. There are now certain formalities that must take place as required by the US and Florida Constitutions. He turned himself in at the Jacksonville jail.d by a lawyer.</span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">He will be arraigned within a short period of time where a Judge or Magistrate will tell him what the charges are, the possible penalties, and set a bond. When setting a bond the official looks at the gravity of the crime, community connections, employment, criminal history, flight risk, substance abuse, and the like. It is also a positive if a lawyer comes in and explains how these factors apply to his client. It is a very good factor for the judge to consider in his bond hearing that he voluntarily turned himself in. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Where Zimmerman “disappeared” to would have a bearing on any bond If he left the state. Although he could have left the state. He was not charged with anything earlier. But, any prosecutor would say, "He left the state once, he will do it again if he is released on bond." </span><br />
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">If bond is granted, it can be personal recogni</span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">zance, meaning that Zimmerman promises to attend all future court hearings or face a big monetary payment and probable immediate incarceration. Not likely here. It can be a cash/surety bond, meaning that he has to get a bondsman to post the bond or the defendant must post the entire bond amount with the Court. This is possible., In some states, there is a cash/or percentage bond set. This means that he can put up a percentage of the bond with the court and if he doesn’t show up later, he forfeits the entire bond amount.</span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Next, before everyone gets excited about a trial, since he will be charged directly by the Prosecutor with an "Information,” and not charged by indictment by a Grand Jury, a Preliminary Examination must be held by the Court first.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">The Prosecutor must prove there's probable cause for him to go to trial. After the Prosecutor presents evidence and witnesses, Zimmerman's lawyer can cross examine the witnesses and challenge credibility of evidence and witnesses. The Prosecutor only has to prove that there is enough evidence to warrant a trial. Zimmerman can challenge all charges and ask for them to be dismissed or lowered in severity. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Don't expect Zimmerman to testify. Do not expect his attorneys to present evidence because this just invites a trial because if the Prosecutor says one thing and the Defendant presents evidence that says another, it then becomes a jury question almost immediately. Its all about the Prosecutor's evidence.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">This is NOT a trial. This hearing does not prove guilt or innocence like a trial. Zimmerman's attorney's job is to challenge state's evidence and try to convince the Judge that the evidence presented by the Prosecutor is not sufficient to move the matter to trial as charged. It's also a chance to see what evidence there is against Zimmerman. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">At the conclusion of the hearing, the Judge decides it the evidence fits the elements of the charged crime, and goes through each part of the definition of the charged crime. He could send it to trial as charged. Or, he can dismiss or lower charges.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">The Prosecutor would refuse to talk to him, as she did, because he was apparently still represented by attorneys when he contacted her. Her talking to a represented person would cost her job and she would lose her law license. That's a terminal violation of rules governing lawyers. This isn't TV, or CS, or any of the Law and Order shows, where there's no reality. This is the real deal. This is real life.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />

</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">.When this is set for trial, if it is, there will certainly be a Change of venue motion to get the trial out of Sanford to somewhere else in Florida. But, the practical result is that Zimmerman has replaced Casey Anthony as the most hated person in America. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Zimmerman will probably be bound over for trial. Many experienced lawyers have never prevailed at a Preliminary examination because the burden of proff for the Prosecutor is so low to send a case on to trial.</span><br />
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">And, it’s not over unless or until her is found guilty of every charge beyond a reasonable doubt. But, there’s also the issue with Eric Holder; but, that’s the subject for another day.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><br />

Some members of these groups have written this week that it would have been "stupid" for a student to have been armed in a Virginia Tech classroom where a murderer killed 33 people. One anti gun rights blogger wrote that crossfire would have caused more injuries, and that the police wouldn’t know who the murderer was when they arrived and would shoot a student defender instead. We hear the same thing over, and over... and over. They prefer police response and guards in the classroom. That is ridiculous. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: #f2f2f5; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">According to some news accounts, some Tech Students jumped from windows to escape and others tried to shield their friends, but many of Hueng-Chu Ho's victims sobbed quietly and pled for their lives as they obeyed his orders as they were shot one by one as they complied. They were apparently waiting for a life saving miracle or intervention. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><br />
<br />
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: #f2f2f5; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial;">One armed student or instructor with a legally carried handgun at least could have had a chance to try to stop this man as he methodically killed students there. He even had to reload during his trip to a second classroom that students attempted to barricade. There's one opportunity to stop this man if there was none before.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: #f2f2f5; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial;">There will never be "guards' in all the classrooms. The statement that police will shoot the wrong person is fallacious. Local police at Virginia Tech took nearly six minutes to enter the barricaded building. By the time cops showed up, it was already over. The killer was dead by the time they arrived. Police are there in minutes when seconds count. We all know that.<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: #f2f2f5; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial;">A no guns policy will never stop a determined killer either. We all know that too.<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span></span><br />
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: #f2f2f5; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial;">A victim's attempt to stop a killer in the act of killing 33 people is just plain stupid, isn't it?</span><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />

The victims’ challenge comes as the nation observes the anniversaries of the mass shootings at Virginia Tech and Columbine High School, and as Americans continue to express outrage over the killing of Trayvon Martin and the guns anywhere for just about anybody agenda of the gun lobby.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://livingfor32.com/screenings.html"><span style="color: #cf2027; text-decoration: none;">Screenings of the documentary, Living for 32</span></a>, which features Goddard’s journey from gun violence survivor to advocate for gun violence prevention, will also take place on college campuses and in communities on April 16.<br />
<br />
Goddard, who survived being shot four times on April 16, 2007, Tom Mauser, whose 15-year-old son Daniel was killed in the Columbine High School massacre on April 20, 1999, and Sherialyn Byrdsong, whose husband Ricky was killed on July 2, 1999 by a white supremacist who should not have gotten a gun, will be joined on Capitol Hill on April 16 and 17 by about 30 other victims of gun violence from cities such as Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, and Philadelphia.<br />
<br />
Goddard emailed and hand-delivered letters over the past few days to eight members of Congress seeking meetings with them and the victims on Tuesday, April 17. Those members include Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nevada), Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky), House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-Virginia), House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-California), and sponsors of what the Brady Campaign calls the “<a href="http://www.bradycampaign.org/xshare/pdf/reports/zimmerman-i-am-the-nra.pdf"><span style="color: #cf2027; text-decoration: none;">George Zimmerman Armed Vigilante Act</span></a>,” Sen. John Thune (R- South Dakota), Sen. David Vitter (R-Louisiana), and Sen. Mark Begich (D-Alaska). </span><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;"><br />
<br />
“Time and again after high-profile shootings, we’ve heard members of Congress say that now is not the ‘appropriate’ time to discuss legislation to prevent these tragedies,” said Goddard, who works as Assistant Director of Legislative Affairs for Brady. “Well, 32 Americans are murdered every single day in this country. We want to know: When will it be ‘appropriate’ to talk about keeping us safe? We are tired of living with the tragedy of gun violence, and we want Congress to act now to protect us and keep guns out of the hands of dangerous people. We won’t rest until they do.”<br />
<br />
Brady Campaign President Dan Gross, whose brother Matthew was shot while visiting the Empire State building in 1997, will bring the voice of the American people to bear on April 16 and 17.</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;"><br />
<br />
“We are coming to Capitol Hill to demand that Congress stand up to the gun lobby. We are coming to demand that Senators reject the 'George Zimmerman Act' and pledge to put the safety of the American people ahead of the gun lobby,” said Gross. “Trayvon Martin, the victims of Virginia Tech and Columbine, Sherilyn Byrdsong’s husband, my brother’s friend, and thousands of other Americans are all dead because the gun lobby has made it easy for dangerous people to get, carry, and use guns. Too many members of Congress have been their accomplices. We’re marching up to Capitol Hill to say ‘Enough is enough! We will hold you accountable for putting the gun lobby’s agenda ahead of the people you were elected to represent.'”<br />
</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;"><br />
The Brady Campaign recently began mobilizing to stop bills S 2188 and S 2213, which make up what it’s calling the “George Zimmerman Armed Vigilante Act.” The Senate bills, similar to HR 822, which passed the House late last year, would allow dangerous people like Zimmerman to carry guns in public places, from downtown L.A., to New York’s Times Square, even though those states’ concealed carry laws make it highly unlikely that Zimmerman would be granted a permit to carry a gun in public.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.5pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">A copy of a report about the implications of the Act can be found</span><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;"><a href="http://www.bradycampaign.org/xshare/pdf/reports/zimmerman-i-am-the-nra.pdf"><span style="color: #cf2027; text-decoration: none;">here</span></a>.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.5pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; text-align: center;"><b><u><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">A Tentative Schedule of Events for April 16 and 17</span></u></b><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 13.5pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;"><b><u><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">Monday, April 16th</span></u></b><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;"><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here are the latest Campaign distortions in a video made against Mitt Romney by the Obama campaign that is hitting email in boxes now. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The video is very deceptive. For example, when Romney accuses Obama of Apologizing for America in the video, Obama is immediately seen in the video in response saying, "We will not apologize for our way of life..." But this was said in January 20, 2009, before Obama ever set one foot into the Oval Office and began his Apology Tour. This video was released yesterday. What a misleading outrage. Just one of many put forth. How stupid do they think people are? I guess the question answers itself. We will see in November. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ironically, the email that solicits three dollar donations states, "You'll help the Truth Team -- a grassroots-driven operation that that's setting the record straight door-to-door, on the phones, and online... After reading the email, and viewing the video, the most ironic statement in it is, "</span><span style="background-color: #eeeecc; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: left;">make sure Romney is held accountable whenever he leaves the facts behind...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Maybe they should have run this video through their "Truth team, before posting the video. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here's the email.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">You need to see for yourself the baseless attacks we'll be facing from here on out.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In his mission to defeat President Obama, Mitt Romney will stop at nothing -- certainly not the truth.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Watch this video, then fight back with a donation of $3 or more.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Backed by his special-interest fundraising machine, and now helping raise money for the Republican National Committee, Romney will spare no expense to attack the President and tear down our progress.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This campaign is backed by you, and we need to hit back every single time they lie about the President's record.</span><br />

Stand your ground laws are being spun by politicians and anti gun rights groups to say that they create a license to kill. This assertion is not the truth anywhere in the US. They also say they should be eliminated. They say that the laws should expressly say that the person using deadly force can’t be the aggressor. It already does that in Florida. Just read the actual aw below.</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">Those attacking the law as a license to kill have not read the law or are parroting those who are saying that is. It’s obvious that those who attack the law have not read it. It’s even more obvious that those making the claim against the law could care less whether what their claim is true or not. But, it makes good campaign rhetoric and fundraising for anti gun rights causes.</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">The Florida law is quite clear on the legal use of deadly use of force in self defense. It is concise, being just three short paragraphs long. It explicitly states when the law can be used and when it is no defense. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">The only justification for deadly self defense there is that there must be a "reasonable belief" that the person using deadly force believes that there will be imminent death or great bodily harm if the other person is not stopped. If that “reasonable belief” is not present, then deadly force is <b>expressly</b> prohibited. And, if that is the case, then a crime has occurred if deadly force is used. The person can be charged with any relevant crime up to murder. <br />
<br />
What other additions could be made to the law to make that fact more clear? </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">That “reasonable belief” is a rebuttable presumption. If the Prosecutor has evidence that the belief wasn’t present, it can be rebutted at the Courthouse. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />

You don't have to be a lawyer to understand it. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">776.012 Use of force in defense of person.—A person is justified in using force, except deadly force, against another when and to the extent that the person reasonably believes that such conduct is necessary to defend himself or herself or another against the other’s imminent use of unlawful force. However, a person is justified in the use of deadly force and does not have a duty to retreat if:</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">(1) He or she reasonably believes that such force is necessary to prevent imminent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself or another or to prevent the imminent commission of a forcible felony; or</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">(2) Under those circumstances permitted pursuant to s. 776.013.</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">Here's the thrust of 776.013, a separate section</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">"A person who is not engaged in an unlawful activity and who is attacked in any other place where he or she has a right to be has no duty to retreat and has the right to stand his or her ground and meet force with force, including deadly force if he or she reasonably believes it is necessary to do so to prevent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself or another or to prevent the commission of a forcible felony."</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">Stand Your Ground and Churches stops criminals there too. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">Churches in many states are “Gun Free” zones that are promoted by various anti gun rights groups across the country. But, in 2007, a madman who killed several people at a Colorado church was stopped by a non paid gun carrying security guard church member where her carry was allowed. The Colorado pastor credited her for saving many lives. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">Anti gun rights proponents say that no one should be able to carry a firearm, concealed or not. But, now another armed congregant, this time at a North Carolina church with a concealed handgun permit and with his handgun in the church, may have prevented mass slaughter. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">A man who had previously been ranting at the church previously returned armed the second time. He was spotted after the initial visit in the parking lot while carrying a shotgun. The congregants had locked the door after seeing him heading toward the church. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">State law there prohibits concealed permit holders from carrying inside a church there unless given permission by church officials. He got that permission after the man made his first visit to the church. The concealed permit holder held off on drawing his sidearm until the intruder kicked open the locked door. At that point, he drew his gun and pointed it at the shotgun wielding man. He was distracted enough for the pastor to grab the shotgun and disarm him, allowing churchgoers to subdue the man. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">It’s alleged that the man’s sister gave him the shotgun and drove him to church. Both have been charged with various crimes. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">And, here’s a Florida Stand Your ground case from this week. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">In Florida, where stand your ground is being politicized, a grocery store employee killed gun carrying 16 year old Quintavius Moore during his failed robbery attempt. Police are investigating all the circumstances, but the female store employee likely will face no charges. This teenager will undoubtedly be counted in the anti gun statistics of “Children” killed by guns. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />

The group’s leader claims that after just 5 weeks into the boycott, over 2,000 loyal, long term Starbucks customers have stopped spending money there. He said that each of the “boycotters” have cost the chain $71.00 per month, or about $142.000 per month. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">Not too impressive because as of 2007, there were between 4 and 5 million daily customers frequenting Starbucks. That’s 33 million weekly customers. There are more now. But the "success" claim is only fodder for their fundraising website. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><o:p> </o:p> </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">But, what’s more telling is that Starbucks Annual report to stockholders reported sales revenue in 2011 of</div><br />
<div class="MsoNoSpacing">$11.7 billion, with gross income of net income of $6.23 billion, and NET INCOME of $1.25 Billion.</div><h2 style="background: white; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 12pt; font-weight: normal;"><br />

What? They are like a Presidential assassin, a mass murderer, a female Nevada politician, and a rock star/hunter? </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">This isn’t a fringe concept. This is mainstream liberalism. This is why gun sales have begun to soar again just like before the 2008 election of Barack Obama. All of this was over a man who was legally openly carrying. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">A Michigan Concealed pistol permit holder walked into a polling place to vote in Michigan’s primary while he carried a holstered handgun. That polling place was located in a school. That’s legal in the State of Michigan. The County Prosecutor said that he was within his rights, but used poor judgment. He was asked to leave immediately after voting.</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">On one hand, no one can determine when he or she will be a victim of a crime. No one knows if a person will walk into an otherwise “gun free” zone and into the middle of an ongoing crime scene. On the other hand, open carry is not as common in Michigan as it is in a state like Arizona. It seems like guns carried openly are seen almost everywhere in Arizona. It’s safe to say that the <u>overwhelming majority</u> of Michigan residents have no idea whatsoever that openly carrying a firearm is legal there. And, that’s where the problem lies. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">Nonetheless, Michigan school officials are required to contact local law enforcement anytime a person with a gun enters a school building. He was detained in the school’s office while police verified that he had a CPL. Then he was released. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">A Philadelphia man recently was detained by Police there three times for legally carrying a sidearm there. The observations written here are not about the wisdom of open carry of firearms because many people carry openly. Others simply choose not to for their own reasons. In other places like Florida, its against the law. This is about a Michigan man who chose to legally carry openly and the consequences of that action. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">This anti gun rights advocate voiced outrage on this open carry incident in his blog. He bemoaned that buying a firearm is easier to do than to vote. The man who entered the polling booth has demanded an apology, and he has hired an attorney to possibly file a lawsuit. He says that his rights were violated. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">The anti gun rights advocate was stunned that the man was able to carry a gun into a school, that he has “rights” to do so, and that he has the temerity to threaten lawsuit. And, he is outraged that the Kent County, Michigan resident wants an apology. Of, course, this anti gun rights proponent claims that no one has a right “to carry firearms wherever and whenever one wants." But in the real world, one can carry “wherever and whenever” the law allows as is the case in Michigan. He also complains that just about every state that allows open carry has “liberal” gun laws.</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">His primary beef, aside from your having any gun rights, is the carrying of a firearm into a polling place at a school. As noted earlier, that’s a legal act in Michigan. He says that carry into a polling place at a school is intimidation of voters. He claims that the act says, “I wear a gun; therefore, you must vote by my rules.” <br />
No, voter intimidation is the Black Panthers carrying baseball bats and actually threatening and turning away would be voters outside a polling place in Philadelphia during the 2008 elections, an action defended by radical Black Panther leaders. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">He parroted Virginia State Senator Janet Howell, who said that it was going to be “harder to vote that buy a gun” after Virginia worked on a “voter suppression” law that requires identification, even photo identification in some states to vote, and when the state canned its one handgun per month law. Even Unions require identification to vote in Union elections, but that’s an entirely different subject for that hypocrite. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">His rant then turned to private firearms sales at gun shows without background checks and with no identification. It appears that he would be happier if voters underwent background checks before voting too. Then, he went absolutely ballistic when he stated that some states are considering showing a valid resident concealed weapons permit as a valid voter identification. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">These permit holders would have actually undergone a background check if they decided to use that form of identification. </div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing">He was extremely agitated that a gun owner tweeted his organization that “votes are more dangerous than guns.” The 2008 elections showed the truth of that statement. <br />

<br />
<span style="color: #333333; line-height: 1.4;">We now know for certain that, no matter who the Republican nominee is, we're not only up against the same economic policies that helped create the worst economic crisis in our lifetime.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #333333; line-height: 1.4;">We're also up against a set of rigid social policies that would take us back almost a century.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #333333; line-height: 1.4;">What we've seen over the past few days is nothing short of terrifying We're facing an all-out attack on women's health care, and now is the time to pitch in and fight it. </span><span style="line-height: 1.4;"> </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #333333; line-height: 1.4;">The leading Republican candidates for president embraced a bill that would allow any employer to deny any employee coverage for contraception -- or any other medical service they personally object to.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #333333; line-height: 1.4;">And when one young woman spoke up about that bill's very real health risks, she was crudely and viciously attacked by their allies. Not a single one of the leading Republican candidates stood up for her.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #333333; line-height: 1.4;">There are 450 other state bills where this one came from.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #333333; line-height: 1.4;">This issue isn't going anywhere.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #333333; line-height: 1.4;">So if you want to make sure our next president isn't someone who wants to take us back to the Dark Ages and actually thinks a woman's access to health care is debatable, then it's time to take action and help build the campaign that's fighting back.</span><br />

This comes after the Colorado Supreme Court held that the University of Colorado had limited power to ban guns on campus after the State passed a concealed carry law. A Colorado lower Court Judge upheld the ban but he was reversed by the State's highest Court. </span><o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">The new President of the organization said, "<i>This is a dangerous ruling. Lives have the potential to be lost as a result. We urge parents, students, and faculty to demand that the University do all it can to keep guns off campus and prevail on their elected officials to reverse this ruling. The University of Oregon has reinstated its gun ban despite a similar court ruling. The Brady Center will help the University of Colorado work to keep young people safe from guns. As last week's tragedy in Ohio reminded us all, nothing is more important." </i></span><o:p></o:p><br />

<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">That murdering student was not stopped from coming to a "gun free" Ohio school with a gun and killing people even though there was a school policy and laws </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">against bringing guns to campus. Let alone being stopped by laws against murder. </span> </div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br />

Yes, lives do have the potential to be lost when helpless victims cannot fight back. This anti gun organization looks you straight in the eye when they say, "</span><i><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">We urge<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial;"> parents, students, and faculty to demand that the University do all it can to keep guns off campus."</span> </span></i><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">They have already done that<i> </i>with a "no guns" policy and laws that has never worked anywhere when a crazed lunatic enters the campus to kill. There is nothing that anyone can do to stop a demented killer from murdering the defenseless except to fight back. </span><o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br />

The names of Cho Seung Ho who left 33 dead and Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold with 15 dead come immediately to mind. We can point to the Appalachian School of Law, where a couple of students armed themselves and shot and killed a student who had already killed three people on campus and was preparing to kill more. </span><o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br />

Someone could have been hurt. </span><o:p></o:p><br />

<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Although this is a private organization, this anti gun rights group's activities reminds us of the the activities of many government bureaucracies, agencies, and assorted other commissions whose only justification for existence is to create new and needless regulation. If they do not continually generate junk, then they cannot justify their continued existence. That's why some 6,000 new medical regulations have just been instituted by the Feds. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">This Colorado ruling does not institute carry at campuses there. It allows the "Students for Concealed Carry" lawsuit against the University of Colorado to be reinstated and continue to proceed against the University.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><br />

<br />
The ruling does not immediately overturn the University’s guns on campus ban, but allows Students for Concealed Carry to proceed with their claim against the University.<br />
</span><i><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">“This is a dangerous ruling. Lives have the potential to be lost as a result.

<br />
The Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence filed an amicus brief urging the Court to overturn an April 2010 Colorado appeals court ruling allowing a lawsuit that seeks concealed guns on campus to proceed. In 2009, El Paso County District Court Judge G. David Miller had upheld the ban on guns on campus, noting that the University Regents had determined that having guns on campus “threatens the tranquility of the education environment and contributes in an offensive manner to an unacceptable climate of violence.”<br />
<br />
Attorneys with the Brady Center's Legal Action Project and Edward Ramey of the Denver law firm of Heizer Paul Grueskin LLP represented the Brady Center. Other groups joining the Brady Center on the brief were the Colorado Ceasefire Capitol Fund and the Greater Denver Million Mom March.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;"> ###<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

The homeowners discovered the burglary and chased him down the street as he fled with some soap, a kitchen knife, and a pair of sox, along with a generator. A crowd gathered around him and pelted him with rocks and pieces of wood. He was DOA at the hospital, seriously.<span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="color: #777777;"> </span></span><br />
<br />
<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">According to Court papers filed by the South Bend, Indiana Prosecutor, 46 year old Keith Davis allegedly had broken into the home of Ashley Murray and made himself at home. He was sitting in a chair in the home when Police entered the house.<span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="color: #777777;"> </span></span><br />
Officers noticed that he had removed chicken and onions from the refrigerator and was cooking them on the stove. He had also folded the victim’s laundry and vacuumed the floors. His bond is set at $50,000. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Daniel Tesfay is on trial in England after he allegedly accidentally shot his accomplice and friend as they tried to steal what turned out to be fake Rolex watches. The watches’ owner grabbed Tesfay and Tesfay tried to shoot him. But he shot his buddy, Jonathan Barnes instead, killing him. Tesfay ran off with the gun, but without the watches.<span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="color: #777777;"> </span></span><br />
<br />
<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">An armed robber in Pakistan shot and killed his accomplice yesterday too. A gang of seven armed thugs entered a business there and began to steal belongings from employees. But, a security guard saw what was happening and grabbed one of the robbers. Another robber shot at the security guard, who was able to get behind cover, and the man he was holding was shot and killed instead.<br />
<br />
<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Other stupid criminals were either shot, killed, or pistol whipped by their intended victims recently.<span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="color: #777777;"> </span></span><br />
<br />
<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">A shopper at an Orlando Walmart was attacked by two men this last week as he reached for shaving razors there. He was pushed to the store’s floor as he shopped. He was being punched by the pair as he pulled his handgun from concealment. The duo was fortunate that their “victim” didn’t shoot. He began to pistol whip them instead. That put a stop to the attack. Instead of cash, one of the thugs ran away sporting a large bleeding gash on his head that he received from a hit by the firearm. The store was temporarily evacuated.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">A seventy one year old convenience store owner near the Texas-Mexico border in Weslaco was robbed and wounded this last week by a gunshot from the armed robbers. But, this feisty store owner pulled his own handgun and shot back at his attackers. Shortly after the elderly man was taken to the hospital, another man was admitted there. He was believed to have been shot by the store owner. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">And, another elderly gentleman in Cleveland shot a teenage burglar in the chest as he broke into the house the owner was sleeping in. The teen was armed with a gun, but the homeowner was fortunate enough to get off the first shot before his handgun misfired. There had been a rash of neighborhood burglaries. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">An Alvarado, Texas man shot and killed a man last Saturday as he tried to break into his house through the back door with repeated force. The resident had called 911 and reported the man who didn’t belong there was walking around the house. He was shot multiple times. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">A Lakeland, Colorado owner of the Cambio de Cheque check cashing store was sprayed with pepper spray as two men tried to rob him. But, the intended victim could still function well enough to draw his sidearm and open fire on his attackers. One of the thugs was sent to the hospital with bullet wounds. The other robber ran off. Police are looking for the man who was wearing black and yellow “Air Jordans” and a black and gray hoodie.<span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="color: #777777;"> </span></span><br />

<br />
<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">The joke in Ireland used to be that people had televisions stolen from inside their homes while they watched them. But, the Irish no longer have to stand idly by while their homes are broken into.<span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="color: #777777;"> </span></span><br />
<br />
<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">The Criminal Defence and Dwelling Act of 2011 is now active law there. A person there can now use force against another person who they believe has illegally entered a dwelling to commit a criminal act. They can also take steps to protect property in the home. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">There is no longer a “Duty to retreat” from the intruder. It doesn’t matter if the person defending the home or property there had an actual justified belief of imminent harm. The belief needed for defense of the "dwelling" by using force just has to be “Honestly Held.”<span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="color: #777777;"> </span></span><br />
<br />
<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">This new law is being put to the test after a suspected burglar was hit by a gunshot shortly after the law was put into effect while he attempted to break into a furniture factory adjacent to where the owner and his family lived. Several perpetrators were involved. The law covers dwellings and “curtilages,” an old English legal term meaning the area immediately surrounding or immediately adjacent to the dwelling. These thugs were the first to be arrested and affected by the law.<span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="color: #777777;"> </span></span><br />
<br />
<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">Meanwhile, England’s law remains unchanged regarding use of force against burglars in the home. It just isn’t allowed. Some 57,000 English confronted burglars in their homes according to the latest available statistics in 2010. That’s about once in every 5 burglaries. And, 23,000 of them experienced some kind of violence from the same home invaders. Householders there are now physically attacked in their homes by intruders once every 30 minutes on the average.</span><br />

That’s worse than being treated like second-class citizens. For Baca, your citizenship and your civil rights apparently don’t matter at all.”</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16px; text-align: justify;">“Baca’s first responsibility should be to the citizens who pay his salary,” Gottlieb said, “and that includes citizens who wish to exercise their Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms for personal protection. If Sheriff Baca can’t tell the difference, then perhaps he should leave public service and find another career.”<br />

</span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">The United Nations and their affiliated Non Governmental Organizations continually claim that their arms control treaty efforts are not directed at curtailing legal private ownership of guns. But, the United Nations has instituted 10 day Training Courses designed to help implement international “treaties” for gun control in Jamaica and throughout the Caribbean. Each session is led by a UN gun control training staff member. The course’s objectives are to give police technical skills related to firearms identification, ammunition and explosives, and to train the first responders in</span><span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span></span><b><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">appropriate and gradual use of force</span></b><span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">and practical disarmament measures.<u1:p></u1:p> <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />

Just exactly what is this “<b>appropriate and gradual use of force?”</b></span><span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"> <o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This comes from an official United Nations website.

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">They have apparently put a portion of the training to use in Jamaica. They have to start somewhere.<u1:p></u1:p> Here's what is happening there. In a possibly related warm up exercise, 4,000 firearms were destroyed in Jamaica in early February under the auspices and close support of the UN Center For Peace, Disarmament and Development in Latin America and the Caribbean. (UNLIREC)<o:p></o:p></span></div><u1:p></u1:p> <br />
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">According to the Jamaica Information Service, which is the information arm of the Jamaican Government, those 4,000 firearms and a half ton of ammunition were destroyed this month by the Jamaican Government in close cooperation with United Nations personnel and with their logistical support.<u1:p></u1:p> The guns reportedly came from the Jamaican Constabulary Forces and the Country’s Firearms Licensing Service. The Government says that they are unserviceable, obsolete, or recovered by police. However, some are civilian firearms that were left in care of the police over a long period of time.<u1:p></u1:p> One photograph of the handguns to be destroyed shows a pile of what looks like some very workable handguns.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">According to the Jamaican Government News Release, the destruction is being done under the auspices of the United Nations Weapons Destruction Assistance Package for Firearms Stockpile Management and Weapons Destruction for Caribbean States. <o:p></o:p></span></div><u1:p></u1:p> <br />
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">The UN is knee deep into firearms destruction and confiscation. At the beginning of the destruction ceremony, the Jamaican Prime Minister of Security thanked the United Nations UNLIREC for providing “technical assistance” for the country to “…fully develop action on small arms regulation and control.” The UN also helped in the country’s acquisition of equipment to destroy firearms. They have provided the country with a UN designed ammunition burning tank, hydraulic shears to cut up firearms, and padlocks to secure the firearms before their destruction.<o:p></o:p></span></div><u1:p></u1:p> <br />
